This is a popular route.  We'll ride at the top of the pace.  We start at the Newport Hills Park & Ride (exit 9 off 405) and head towards Renton. We'll stop at Coulon Park for a quick bathroom break before heading to the flat, Green River Trail toward Alki Beach where we'll stop at Tully's for a coffee break.  Then, we'll head around the waterfront, wave hello to Bertha, the stuck drill, and then through the International District towards the Mountain to Sound Greenway Trail, across I-90 bridge and Mercer Island to return to Bellevue.  The first 2/3 of the ride is flat as a pancake.  This is a friendly ride and we'll stay together.  Ride leader mentoring opportunity available.  If wet, we'd appreciate fenders.   This will be a blast!

In case of weather cancellation, the ride leader will not be at the start.  Cancellation will be posted here two hours prior to the ride start.

Unfortunately, I injured my foot yesterday and need to give it a rest today. This ride is cancelled.
